something like a hot rod deluxe would work great
that's a popular amp, I've heard guys gig them and sound good, but I can never get my sound out of 'em... they take pedals pretty well though... one heads up, try to find a 90s one used, they were bult better with off-board tube sockets back then, made in the USA.... I know guys who have had reliability issues with the new ones... also, take a new one to a tech and have it rebiased immediately to improve the clean tone (unless you dig the sound wholeheartedly), Fender biases them cold from the factory to prevent in-store tube failures and hey sound a bit anemic...
if you intend to use pedals for your OD/distortion and ignore the amp's drive feature consider going with a simpler circuit, less to go wrong, less unused amp circuitry bogging down your signal... in my opinion the best amp for the pedalboard guy playing small venues and covering a wide range of styles is a deluxe reverb with a really efficient speaker or driving a larger cab, the DRRI is rated at about 22 watts and that's bone clean tone there, give it a 100dB efficiency celestion like a G12H or V30 and it will hold its own with a 40 watt 1x12 combo and you will get a nice full clean because you will be driving everything a little harder to get the stage volume you would from a dual 6L6 circuit because the larger amp will be a bit too loud at its sweet spot (the range on the volume or gain dial where the amp is just about to break up if you dig in, which provides the fullest, most touch sensitive and most pedal-flattering clean tone in fender type class AB amplifiers) for most sound guys/managers in bars to tolerate... hey, Rick Nielsen of cheap trick has ALWAYS used silverface deluxe reverbs chopped into heads, pushed into light OD driving marshall or marshall-style cabs and no one has ever said cheap trick had bad tone...
in the same wattage and feature range as the hot rod I really prefer fender's supersonic amps, both the dual 6v6 and original dual 6L6 models sound tasty and the 'supergain' or whatever they call that channel? not bad at all... its based on the discontinued custom shop prosonic head which is a really good sounding piece too, but hard to find... if you think you might get your drive from the amp there are lots of amps with footswitchable drive in that price range (particularly if you are open to used kit and you should be, amps made before Chinese manufacturing are better laid out and constructed, if a used 90s amp was well serviced by previous owners and you keep up with changing output tubes and checking out any weird intermittent noises and such then it should go strong for decades) that I think sound a lot better (including the aforementioned supersonics), but try a bunch without any preconceived notions...
play them loud, bring your drummer to a store during a time when the store is not busy and ask if you can take some amps in the drum room and test them at gig volumes with your drummer banging away and see how you sound against his playing... in cheapies I am pretty impressed with the egnater and jet city stuff for tone, but I can't speak to reliability
